The link to the old group is found here:

And if you want to have a go at improving your Chinese, you could try transcribing a lesson on this forum category. https://forum.chinesepod.com/c/Transcriptions

 

Chris and jbmartin6 are correct. Creating all the content, as well as word-by-word transcriptions of what we say is currently too time consuming. ChinesePod has also always encouraged students to do the hard work themselves so that they actually learn what we teach :)

"Outrageous stories" help you remember easier. You can simply swap out nouns and verbs for other ones that you prefer.

Learning is about adapting what you hear into something you personally find relevant. To use an analogy, we provide the tools and clay, but it is up to you, the students to make the artwork.

Have you tried the Vocabulary review MP3? That sounds like what you're describing. Give it a try : )

Check out our dictionary. It finds all the sentences from our 'uge library and provides the audio for them.

Hi John, We've updated the lesson to a video lesson which hopefully gives you a better grasp of it. Check the latest Qing Wen episode within the next hour.
